Thanks for the information Frizz. One more question if I may - what is your normal suspension setting? Comfort/Automatic/Dynamic.

It would be a great case study if we all responded with settings/ tyre pressures /mileage and tyre size.

When I spoke t Goodyear they do not see the same problems with other vehicles fitted with their tyres - and I don't think that many other SUV's come with air suspension as standard - ?

So the theory goes like this: Comfort mode and tyre pressure F35 R35 is the worst mode for eating tyres as teh suspension is doing more work anf has more movement under those settings - but it is teh best for comfort.

Dynamic and F40 R42 is a stiffer set-up and helps with suspension movement and so can be controlled better - eats less tyres

So there is my 10p worth.

More research on suspension set-up under way - initial findings are that to have excellent control and stability I would need race type bushes on my suspension (i have that on my Cosworth and it is painful but brilliant) - I can't see Audi doing that - so hence the compromise - soft suspension and to hell with the tyres.

But you seem to have the best of both world - so I suspect your set-up is accurate and in accordance with the specifications. My beef is that I am certain that my set-up is not within spec.
